Essex Uprights

[Paul T Williams]

Contact any of the "All Steinway Schools" like Oberlin.  I think they have 
some.   I haven't heard any great reviews of them, however....

RE: Essex Uprights






Nobody? Strange. So, here is my very little experience: The other day I 
went in a piano store (without outing me as a piano tech) and played a 
little bit. I think these pianos are too expensive and I was disappointed 
of the sound. I sell Wendl & Lung (= Hailun, also Chinese made) in my shop 
and the Wendl & Lung sound much better than the Essex. But I never tuned 
an Essex and can´t say more about these instruments. Are they not made by 
Pearl River? I wonder if Essex is identical to Pearl River or if there are 
any Steinway modifications on it. I.e.: is Essex a normal Pearl River just 
with another fallboard decal?
